3/5/18 Minutes: ISO Speaker, Friends of AK Press

In attendance: Jackson (moderator), Ty (secretary)
Start time: 7:03 PM

1. Event Review – We had our What is Transfeminism discussion on Saturday, and it was a good turnout and a lively talk. Ty thinks he might have been able to structure it a bit better, though he is unsure how he would have done so.

2. Upcoming Event – We have Popcorn Politics coming up, Mad Max: Fury Road! We’re confident we’ve got it ready to go!

3. Speaker – Jackson is working with the committee that was planning on organizing a leftist conference, to bring in a speaker instead. ISO is pushing for a speaker tour through the country in the spring and the committee is working with a few local reps of ISO to bring in a speaker from the ISO, specifically speaking about immigration. This will be on Tuesday, April 10, in the Heritage Room of UNL’s City Campus Union. We have been asked if The Black Cat House be one of the sponsors of this event, and we think that would be a good idea given that Jackson was already a part in getting the event organized.

4. Friends of AK Press – We’re still pondering whether we want to sign up for Friends of AK Press. The 1-year membership is $300, and Jackson believes we have the money for it now. We have agreed to bolster our anarchist literature with a membership, and signed up for it tonight.
